Looks great. I've molded mine and its going to be resin. Of course I need to router out the back to make it a shell. One issue with the vacuum forming, The edges are straight down, not angled. So its going to be a pain in the arse to pull the plastic off of the master. I did that as well, and it cracked and didn't look good at all. That's why I went with resin.
